With the short entry list for Round 5 of Batangus over in the Philippines, Allen Family Racing Team decided to add their 4th car to the grid to get some starting money. Their fourth driver interestingly is Matt Daleo. Cloud9 Racing announced they will be cutting back races and Daleo will now be more focused on running Hardee's National Series races.

Matt Daleo however wants to be back in the Cup Series and he is looking for any offer. Daleo got the call to drive the 4th car for Round 5 in the Philippines because he was open and Daleo has some experience behind the wheel on road courses. Matt Daleo has a win in the Cup Series dating back to Season 17 at Decatur. His victory in the Cup Series was on a road course so his experience could be useful so Daleo will be teaming up with AFRT for Round 5.
